It's fine for the moment until we're sure we're out of trouble but long term it can't continue like this, it's no way to progress to where we want to be.

I'm happy with Sam for the minute and he's got us the results but he'll need to get us playing decent football if we're ever going to get anywhere near the likes of Chelsea

Be interesting to see what happens in the window - if he goes for some flair or sticks with the workmen like route

Good discussion starter. No one can score vs. Allardyce's Everton! So job #1 complete in terms of escaping the relegation threat, now we need Barkley back and a few more attacking players and a top striker. We won't have to park the bus when we get the quality players to push forward.
